Su-27 Flanker
Su-27 Flanker comes with a powerful mission builder/planner and many preset missions, but sadly lacks any campaigns or pilot career options. It's all about the flying experience, mission planning and building. It's a great game with many nice details, that show the love and labour that has gone into this game. For example, the reaction times for the controls (gears etc...) are not instant as seen in most games, but are just exactly the way they are in the real Su-27. Like it or not. Supports local networks for multi-player missions. Overall, an excellent game up in the ranks with Tornado or Falcon 3.0. However, you might be disappointed if you're expecting something more in the tradition of Microprose's way of doing the job. Two thumbs up, way up!
Note: the buy link below leads to Squadron Commander Edition, which upgrades the game to v1.5 and adds 150 extra missions.
